Health Benefits and Concerns of Uncle Ben’s Microwave Rice Potential Health Benefits I cook mostly brown rice now but in the past cooked white. I use a 2:1 water to rice ratio for brown rice. Now, to keep it from boiling over, it doesn’t matter what your oven wattage is, just remember cook it in 2 stages: stage 1 is cook it whatever time in necessary on FULL power to boil the water. Stage 2 is then immediately reduce your oven’s power to 20%-30% for the rest of the cook time, just whatever is required to simmer the rice, not make a big rolling boil that spills all over your oven making a mess. For organic brown rice, I use 2 cups water, 1 cup rice, and 5 minutes at full power to boil, then at 30% power for 45 minutes. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes when the oven shuts off, fluff, and eat. Perfect every time, no oven mess. If you let it sit longer than 5-10 minutes when done, no problem; it will stay hot a long time. This method is very forgiving, (would be “has a wide exposure latitude”, in photography). I’ve cooked rice in the microwave now for almost 20 years and wouldn’t do it any other way. My stovetop rice was always hit or miss but this solved my rice problem. Reply I don’t think I’d ever heard of washing rice to get the excess starch off or of the “Ancient Chinese Secret” of measuring the water with one’s finger. I tried both this time. THANK YOU. My mom does this–and I’ve seen it every night of my life until I left for college–and I do it when I make the rice around her (but I really just eyeball it?) but I never knew what to look for when I used my finger.Put the lid on. Notice this rice cooker has air vents – this allows the steam to escape during cooking, which is good. If you use a microwave pot that has a very tight fitting lid, your lid will explode off.
